Participant Acceptability of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia in Menopause: a Scoping Review

Le résumé fourni par la source

The prevalence of insomnia and other sleep disturbances increases with age, particularly during the menopausal transition, with approximately 40-60% of midlife women experiencing insomnia symptoms. Menopause-related sleep disturbances are associated with poorer mental health and reduced quality of life. Clinical practice guidelines recommend Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBTi) as the first-line treatment for chronic insomnia, and several forms of CBTi have been applied within menopausal populations. However, less is known about the acceptability of these interventions among menopausal individuals. This scoping review aims to map and characterize existing literature examining the acceptability of CBTi and related non-pharmacological interventions for insomnia during the menopausal transition. The primary outcome of interest was intervention acceptability. Acceptability was defined using the Theoretical Framework of Acceptability, and will include outcomes such as participant satisfaction, engagement, perceived usefulness, burden and engagement with the intervention.
